I own both games SPMBT and SPWW2 both are the CD versions.

The ingame help says the K key toggles ID tags.
It seems this doesn't work for me.

Is this a problem on my end or is this feature not working?

I did install all patches and al other hot keys do working.

It's possible to turn the ID tags on and off via preferences but this k key would be a nice feature. :)

You are correct. The in game help does say K will turn the ID tags on or off but I have found nothing in code to support that and AFAIK that section of the Help file was written about a decade ago and you're the first one to report it.

I'll put it on the "if we do this again" list but for now, click on preferences then ID tags, it's only one extra step

Ok great to hear, in fact I was just wondering if there was something wrong on my end...

Nope..it's the game we said K will do it but there is nothing in code. We have so many hotkeys even I have to look them up

The key binded to toggling id tags is '5'

No..... '5' turns the unit ID info on/ off not the tags
